1998 Citroen Xsara VTS review from Chile
"Great overall sports car"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Only problem was the airbag warning light, which would turn on without a reason. Cause was a faulty connector, changed by the dealer at no cost.
General comments?
Great car!!! Quite fast and has fantastic handling. Was a great bargain, since I bought used. So far it has been very reliable, plan to keep it 2 or 3 years.
Since it looks like a normal Xsara it doesn't stand out which is great with the Police... gives your average Golf driver a scare at the stop lights.
